Why Sk8boardSchool?

Safety


Kids build confidence by learning important fundamentals such as Sk8park etiquette and how to fall without getting hurt. 


Positive Youth Leadership


Helmets and pads are cool... bullies and bad attitudes are not. We also encourage independence, individuality and kindness along with our 5 Sk8boardSchool values (see below.)


Professional Instruction


At Sk8boardSchool you will not only learn from a great Sk8boarder, you will learn from a great instructor. For over a decade our signature curriculum has been specifically developed not only to be extremely fun, but also to be understood and remembered by kids for years to come.

Sk8boardSchool Values:

Creativity


Sk8boarding can be a fantastic way to express one's creativity, at Sk8boardSchool we embrace this fact to the fullest. Kids are always encouraged to Sk8 at their own pace and Instructors are trained to adapt teaching methods based on their student’s unique learning style. 


Friendship


Getting along with others and learning how to make friends are critical skills that kids will always need. Students of similar age or ability level will often be given a few minutes of free Sk8ing time together in hopes of making a new Sk8 buddy! 


Fun


The most important thing about Sk8boarding is having fun and at Sk8boardSchool we never forget it. Fun is the ultimate goal that our other skills and values are working together to achieve. 


Persistence


The level of relentless persistence honed by a Sk8boarder can be truly remarkable. Sk8boarders quickly learn that achieving a desired result often requires trying over and over (and over) again. 


Determination


Over the years Sk8boarding helps develop incredibly strong will and the type of grit necessary for making things happen. Determination, along with the other Sk8boardSchool values is highly transferable and often seen in many aspects of a Sk8er's life. 

Sk8boardSchool Curriculum

There’s a curriculum? Yeah dude!

🛹 Specifically designed for beginners, Sk8boardSchool's signature curriculum has been developed, refined and proven over several years to be both fun and effective.


🛹 We break down decades of hard earned Sk8boarding knowledge into bite sized chunks. These bite sized chunks are then easily received, understood and remembered by kids for years to come.

🛹 Allow your little Sk8er to learn properly the first time how to push, ride, turn, do tricks, sk8 ramps and even how to fall down without getting hurt!

🛹 Sk8boarding and Sk8 parks can be equally intimidating, let us help boost your little Sk8er’s confidence by helping them earn the skills they need to be safe and have fun.


🛹 "We focus on safety, positive youth leadership and don't forget the most important thing about Sk8boarding... having fun!"
- Dayton Chappelear (Owner/Founder/Instructor)
